About Me
italki teacher since Feb 18, 2020InterestsBusiness & FinanceFoodMusicTravelReading
Italian teacher, blogger and podcaster. Founder of the project Ilazed, the website with plenty of explanations and free resources
I am Ilaria. I am an Italian native speaker, and I started teaching Italian to foreigners as a full-time job in 2017.
I have built my entire career around the Italian language, and today I run a blog (written in Italian and English) and several podcasts in which I talk about the Italian language (grammar, explanations, and tips for learning this language) and the Italian culture.
I love my job, and it allows me to meet interesting people from around the world.
If you have any questions or concerns about my classes, write to me!
I can't wait to hear from you! :)Me as a Teacher
My teaching method is focused on the students, and during the first lesson, I ask my students why they want to learn Italian and the goals they want to reach.
At the beginning of each lesson, I'll ask the students if they have any questions from the previous classes or about something they have listened to or seen; only after that we'll start the new lesson!
I am a supportive person, and I will constantly be there to guide you during the challenge of learning a foreign language! My lessons & teaching style

Ilaria is such a nice person, you can talk with her about literally ANYTHING! She knows a lot about italian culture and history and manages to explain even complicated grammar in an easy way.
Oh and also, she constantly(!!!) makes you feel awesome about your Italian, which is very motivating :)

Ilaria is an incredible teacher! She always encourages me and helps so much with my pronunciation. She gives me the confidence to practice and speak freely without ever knocking me down. Anche se non sono ancora al livello che vorrei, so che con l'aiuto di Ilaria è un obiettivo raggiungibile. I leave every lesson feeling like I’m one step closer to speaking Italian. Grazie mille, Ilaria!

Very engaging and helpful instructor, with a superior knowledge of grammar. Has the capacity to explain in clear terms how to improve communicating in Italian, and is very good at picking up on the little details that helps a person be more clearly understood by a native speaker of Italian.
